Messrs. Smith, Thurston & Kinney
-Gentlemen Mr.. Gibson has placed
in my hands your letter of 10Th inst,
in which you state that your client,
Mrs. Flora Howard, proposes that
Mr.. Gibson should acknowledge an
engagement to marry her, claiming
that the same is necessary for her
protection and vindication, and by
so doing he will be released from
any further claims or demands by
her. ] have to say in reply, on be-
half of Mr.. Gibson, that he declines
to make the acknowledgement, not
having made any proposals Of mar
riage to the lady in question. | also
express his surprise that such an
avowal should be required of him by
your client as he knows of nothing
in his acquaintance with her which
should make necessary any protec-
ton or vindication Of character.
Yours truly,
f. M. HATCH,
ATTORNEY for Mr.. Gibson.
